internet explorer and media player problems? help please

[shadow4509]

I'm having problem with Internet Explorer 7 and Windows Media Player (10 i think). If I click on a link, which then is supposed to open something in media player it never works, it used to but it doesnt now. I'm trying to listen to some music samples but whenever I press play mp3 sample instead of media player opening and playing the sample I just get "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage".

Can anyone help me with this please so I can get it working correctly?

Cheers
